fastfish 0 Posted March 27, 2007 no? U.S. Military Foils Insurgent Attack.... U.S. soldiers foiled two suicide truck bombings against their base in a small town west of Baghdad and killed as many as 15 attackers, the U.S. military reported Tuesday. The attacks began when a water truck tried to drive into the base just north of Karmah, a town not far from the city of Fallujah, at about 2 p.m. Monday. A soldier opened fire and the truck bomb exploded. The military said 30 insurgents responded with small-arms fire, rocket-propelled grenades and mortars. Five minutes into the firefight, a dump truck following the same path as the exploded water truck tried to smash into the base but the driver was shot and the load of explosives blew up. The military estimated it killed 15 insurgents in the fight and said eight soldiers were wounded. Seven of the wounded returned to duty after treatment by medics at the site. One soldier was hospitalized. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,659 Posted March 27, 2007 just north of Karmah , a town not far from the city of Fallujah, at about 2 p.m. Monday. I'm not surprised, I've heard that Karmah's a biitch. and it looks like the story's already on about 40 different "lib media" sites, so I'm not sure what your point is.

Nevada Crimmins 0 Posted March 27, 2007 The libs would rather have seen the US base get blown up and a high number of US soldiers hurt. Seriously. Then they could use it for ammo and cry foul on the reason we're in Iraq and what not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like what Walter Cronkite did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
